I just found out I need to have an operation soon that will determine if I have a potentially fatal illness and which is needed to determine future treatment.
I also found out that this operation may be postponed because of hospital crowding due to covid.
My judgment of the evidence is that the pressure on hospitals right now is indeed made much worse by the the greatly increased level of sickness among unvaccinated people as well as the fact that lack of vaccination allows the disease to spread more rapidly.
Sorry to hear of your predicament! God bless.
However, consider also how many “medical experts” have QUIT or been FIRED for refusing the vax. “Staffing problems” - from policies about firing, and also such as forced quarantine, etc.
It’s not really the disease causing problems - it’s the hysteria over it.
Trust me, as a chronic sufferer trying to get help for unknown problems, having already had 3 cancers, I’ve seen how medical behaves because they’re so sure this is the Black Plague!
Last year this time I was kicked out of my oncology appt why? Because, OMG, I had COVID 3 weeks ago! On noes! I was so proud to tell them I had it and “survived” (98% of us do), but their policy (not told you before you drive there) was nobody who had COVID less than 6 weeks out could come in!
Then guess what? I was Dxed in April with breast cancer again (regular f/u scans - and breast specialist). Thanks, oncology!
This hysteria has pissed me off to no end!
That may be a comforting way to blame some group of people for your justifiable stress and worry, but it isn't supported by actual data. Take a look at Table 13 in this report. Transmission results from cases, not hospitalizations, and for whatever reasons right now in the UK where they collect a lot of detailed data vaccinated people in some age groups are twice as likely to have a COVID case as unvaccinated people.
The people spreading COVID are the vaccinated people.
